i dont get it..

I just finished a 6 bolt swap and get everything back together.

im using my "old" (about 3000 miles on it) ACT2100 and a brand new 6 bolt fidanza flywheel..

I had already shimmed the pivot ball some earlier and before the engine swap the car shifted like a dream..

I bled the clutch some.. it feels solid..

I adjusted the push rod under the dash.. its ALL the way out.. as far as it will go..

its still doesent disengauge..


im stumped.. what else could it be? do i need another washer under the pivot ball? or what?
 
Ok i fixed it...


turns out.. you know the hollow stud on the waterpipe side of the motor.. well i slid the trans on the stud BUT DID NOT put a bolt through it and into the block.. so there was a small gap there.. the trans was not 100% butted up against the engine.. thats why it wasnt disengauging.
